Chapter 39: Confrontation

At night, there are no more people on the spacious Dingmao Street. This street is always cleaned by people. The ground is clean and there is snow on both sides.
This is a road at the gate of Guo Gong Mansion. You can get home by turning around. Song Song was very familiar with this road when he was a child, and he rarely went out later.
"... too, too high."
"Don't be afraid when I am here."
Song Song crouched on the roof. To avoid procrastination, he didn't wear a cape, so he put on a cotton coat and looked at first glance, a little bloated.
"I found that Song Ge has a good reputation abroad and is friendly to people. He usually goes out when he goes out, and he rarely takes people."
Song Song nodded, "He's used to being a man."
Is a hypocrite.
He meditated silently, Li Xiao stood up to see, Song Song hurriedly reached out to hug his legs, on the roof, he was still scared, although the snow on the roof had almost melted.
Fortunately, Li Xiao didn't let him stay for long, he quickly took Song Song down, and immediately hid after Song Song landed, Li Xiao came over and stood behind him.
Song Song probed his brain: "Where is it? Is he here?"
"You are waiting here."
Song Ge brought a pot of wine and came down with a hand. The street was empty, but he was not afraid. He could get home by turning a corner.
But today's crooked fleeting year was unfavorable. Suddenly a sack came down from his head, followed by a pain in his abdomen, he was kicked to the ground, and the hip flask was broken in his hand. He was shocked and asked in the darkness: " Dare to ask Xiongtai what an old hatred it has against me, what is this for?"
The man dragged him and pulled straight back. He was full of panic and felt weird. Who would hurt him by covering his head?
"who are you?!"
Li Xiao beckoned Song Song over and said, "I am Li Xiao."
Song Ge froze in his heart, "My lord, why is my lord like that? Where did I offend you?"
He couldn't see people clearly, but he always felt that Li Xiao shouldn't use this method even if he helped Song Song get angry.
Li Xiao chuckled: "This king wants to hit you, just hit you, what reason?"
"My lord..." He didn't have much time to say, and suddenly felt that someone was riding on him, and his fist was smashed and his face was smashed down. He raised his arm to protect his head: "Who the are you? How dare you flatter Wang Ming? Don't die?! Oh--"
Song Song was doing bad things for the first time, and felt terrified and frightened at the same time. After running, he dragged Li Xiao to run. After a long run, he gasped for breath. He was patted on the back and breathed smoothly. Excited."
Li Xiao grabbed his hand, the sack was rough, and the back of the punch was broken. He frowned: "Sometimes people will use silk as a pocket, so as not to wear Songer's hand."
"It's okay, I don't hurt." Song Song smiled silly, and he touched his head: "What else do you want to do?"
"There is nothing I want to do, go home and I will give you the following to eat, drink some soup, warm up."
He felt the pleasure for a short time, and he felt a little bit angry in his heart. He was so happy that he didn't notice Li Xiao's sideways look, his eyes darkened.
Song Ge was beaten with blood, his face was swollen, and his bones were broken. He was sent in by a coachman. The man was comatose, but the most terrible thing was not his injury, but his foot. Cut it.
The white thick on the Guogong Mansion had not been taken down, and this happened again. The Qin clan screamed and burst into tears: "Who is it? Who hurts me?!!!"
Song Guogong also had a big face. While ordering someone to see the injury, he called the man in front of him: "Can you see who hurt him?"
"The villain dare not say..." The driver was trembling, but he didn't dare to say, just know. Song Guogong said in a deep voice: "Who the is it, it's good for you to tell."
He waved his hand, and the steward immediately stepped forward to reveal a silver coin. The driver saw the money and opened his eyes. After hesitation, he was still entangled. The steward again ordered a plate of silver ingots. Princess Ping!"
Song Guogong's back with blue muscles suddenly burst into a rage, his eyes full of anger, the manager's face was unbelievable, and he listened to Song Guogong: "Don't you dare to be a witness?"
The man glanced at the silver spindle with nostalgia, and hesitated again. Song Guogong waved his hand, and another silver spindle came out.
Qin was sitting in the room carefully rubbing Song Ge's face, her sobbing sounded in the room, and when he came in, he stood up immediately: "Who is that? The driver can tell the truth?"
"He said, Song'er."
Qin's eyes suddenly burst: "Song Song, I must peel him and cramp!"
Song Guogong immediately said: "Don't be impulsive, although Song'er's personality has changed a lot now, but it is far from such a cruel person, I am worried..."
"You're worried about a fart!" Qin's teeth gritted: "Jia Shi had just suffered such suffering shortly after he left. Look at your son, look at him... his feet were not broken, they were being Cut it off, cut it off. Do you understand?"
She was desperate and said: "My song is talented, A Shi is naive, but now...the two of them are completely destroyed by Song Song-they are completely destroyed!!!"
She was so painful that she couldn’t stand, the grandmother on one side supported her with tears, and Song Guogong seemed to have tears in his eyes.
"You go to your majesty, to get justice! Don't mention the king, just grab Song Song, he murders his brother, I don't believe that your majesty can endure such a vicious royal daughter-in-law!!"
When Song Ge woke up, he didn't know what happened. He only felt pain all over his body, but he couldn't stand up. Qin cautiously calmed him and asked him. Song Ge closed his eyes and said, "I heard... ...The voice of the mad king, but the person who beat me was not the mad king, he was not so powerful, and he did not practice martial arts... The kicks on me later seemed to be done by the people who practiced martial arts."
"Don't be afraid, your father has entered the palace to ask you justice, we must get Song Song out and ask clearly--"
"Why is my father so reckless?" Song Ge immediately said: "This matter is related to Wang Ping, if you want to get revenge, you can only plan carefully..."
Suddenly he said, "My left foot seems to be unconscious...?"
Not without consciousness, but without it.
Qin glanced at his feet, then fell on his blank face, and said: "Song, you take good care of everything, everything will be fine..."
Song Ge's face slowly faded, and he said, "What's wrong with me? Mother, you tell me."
He looked at Song Zhen behind the Qin family again, and the little girl shuddered, and said with tears: "Song Song, cut..."
Song Ge suddenly struggled to sit up, and the servants on one side did not dare to approach. Seeing his bruised forehead, he did not know where the injury was. He suddenly coughed up a blood and said, "Help me!"
Qin's trembling, as if sad to be out of breath.
A scream soon came from the house: "Song Song! Where am I sorry for him!!! Why is he so cruel?!"
Song Guogong knelt in front of the emperor, his forehead faintly with Khan Pearl. After listening to the latter silently, he confirmed with him: "You mean, Ping Wang, cut Song Ge's foot?"
"No, no, this is a family matter, it’s Song'er. Some people saw Song'er starting with Ge'er, but Song'er is now the princess of the Prince of Ping. It's really not good for the government to get people, and His Majesty brought him out. The palace..."
The emperor was silent for a while, and then said, "Do you have a witness?"
"Yes, just outside the hall."
The driver estimated that he had never entered such a place in his life. He walked in with fear and knelt on the ground with his head buried. He didn’t dare to even look at the sky. Emperor Hongren said mildly: "Grandpa Ye said, you saw Ping Wang murdered ?"
Song Guogong immediately corrected softly: "It's not Ping Wang, it's Princess Ping."
Ming Gonggong, who served the emperor, glanced at Song Guogong, but he also dropped his eyelashes and didn't see it.
Emperor Hongren asked: "Did you see Princess Ping committing an attack on her brother?"
The driver suddenly changed his mouth: "No! Don't dare to bully the king! The villain didn't see anything! The villain just passed by and saw the second son's serious injury, and took him home to the house. do not know!"
He suddenly changed his tongue, Song Guogong's complexion changed greatly, and Emperor Hongren said firmly, "What are you doing here?"
"... villain, the villain is taking money from the people, □□, Song Guogong gave two hundred and two silvers, let me testify against the king!"
Song Guogong was appalled: "The servant has ten thousand guts who dare not despise Ping Wang. Your Majesty, this matter, this matter is supposed to be wrong by your servant, please His Majesty, please allow him to go back and check it!"
"Not in a hurry." Emperor Hongren said: "You sit there first."
Song Guogong was sitting on the chair tremblingly, next to a large fire on one side. He was sweating and sweating himself, and it seemed that he was being roasted by fire. Emperor Hongren likes Li Xiao more than any son. He always bites Song Song, but the other party is always pulling on Li Xiao. Song Guogong finally changed his face, which made him retreat.
"Go, call King Ping." Emperor Hongren said: "The prince violated the law and committed the same crime with the people. Song Guogong, if it is really this wicked son, I will make justice for you."
If it's really...
But if not?
If Li Xiao vetoed it at once?
But at the moment, Song Guogong has been chased by ducks, and he can only wipe the sweat on his forehead, not only to prevent Li Xiao from going crazy, but also to figure out what Emperor Hongren is thinking at the moment.
Li Xiao quickly arrived, he glanced at the situation in front of him, slightly puzzled: "See Father Emperor, dare to ask Father Emperor Xuan'er Chen what?"
Emperor Hongren suddenly dropped the glass and scolded: "Kneel!"
Song Guogong's knees softened, and he almost slid down the chair and knelt down. Fortunately, the father-in-law supported him and let him sit on the chair calmly.
Li Xiao knelt calmly: "Children are ignorant, and I do something wrong to make father emperor so angry?"
"How about Song Ge's feet?"
Li Xiao stunned and looked at Song Guogong. The latter flinched. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Children and Song family are relatives. Who doesn't know how children are favored by Song'er, how could it hurt his second brother?"
"The witnesses are here. Do you dare to say?" Hongren concealed the fact that the witness did not accuse Li Xiao. He was defrauding him. Li Xiao narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Oh? What did the witness say? Father The emperor, if anyone deceives and slanders children, you may have to rule for them."
"You really haven't committed murder?!"
"The perpetrators should always have a motive for committing the crime. Dare to ask the children's motive for committing the crime?"
Emperor Hongren seemed to have just thought about this, he raised his eyes and said: "The second son may have said, what is the hatred of this evil son?"
Song Guogong couldn't say a word, he was soaked with cold sweat, he finally realized that Song Song now entered the palace, already Li Xiao's people, anyway, as long as Song Song bite, Li Xiao will definitely not be able to run away , So the emperor only declared Li Xiao instead of Song Song. In fact, this method still left some face to the Song family. If Song Song was asked to ask the motive for the crime, he could only take out the family ugliness, and it might not be true. Song Song can be punished.
From the beginning, he entered the palace to find Emperor Hongren to reason, but it was a big mistake.
He did not speak, Emperor Hongren said quietly: "Song Guogong?"
Song Guogong knelt down again and said, "This subject is also deceived by people, thinking that it was Princess Ping who did it. At this moment, he wants to come here and there, and invite Rongchen to think again!"
Li Xiaodao said: "The princess is mild in nature, how could he do this vicious thing? What's more, he went to the porridge a few days ago and suffered a sudden illness, and he is still cultivated in the house at the moment. Song Guogong not only visited the house, but also made rumors and slander? Your son There are many, and it is inevitable to be biased, but it can be biased like this, but it is really rare."
Song Guogong said in a panic: "Secretary, the minister is just a moment, messing up the square... Please His Majesty forgive sins."
"Although the prince committed the same crime as the common people, but if anyone slanders the royal family, I can't just sit back and ignore it. Song Guogong, you go back to the Union House to investigate Yin Haosheng, and you must find out the real murderer, and you must also have the innocence of the king and the princess."
Song Guogong understands that this matter has nothing to do with Li Xiao and Song Song here in the emperor's case. If he wants to testify again, it must be iron proof.
He could only swallow his breath and kowtowed to Shane: "Your Majesty Xie forgives his reckless sin."
"The driver was erratic, pulled down and hit the forty boards, and drove out of the city."
The room was quickly cleared. Emperor Hongren glanced at Li Xiao, who was still kneeling, and walked over to lift him up, and said, "I always teach you not to bully, to be honest, isn't it really you?"
Li Xiaodao said: "Really not."
"How about the princess?"
"The princess's illness is so turbulent that the doctor said that he shouldn't blow the hair and kept quiet."
Emperor Hongren looked at him for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Fuck, go back."
"Children resign."
Watching the tall figure leave, the emperor was supported back to the chair by his father-in-law and said, "What do you think?"
"The porridge shed came back two days ago. The princess was really anxious and vomited blood. Some people saw it, after seeing Song Ge."
"What about Dark Guard?"
"The dark guard who protected the prince said that the prince did take the princess out of the palace, but he only fought and did not cut his feet."
Emperor Hongren drank his tea and ran his throat, saying, "Song Guogong asked to cut his feet."
"Exactly, the cut of the feet has nothing to do with the prince."
